Chapter 755: It’s Not That Kind of Relationship

When Zeng Xiaomei heard Doctor Niu confirm that Xiao Yi was the doctor he mentioned who could treat this person, she was already struck like lightning, her mind completely blanked. Now, listening to the three doctors, each taking turns speaking as if, they all assumed she was Xiao Yi’s girlfriend. Instantly, her face couldn’t help but flush red, "You... What are you all talking about? Xiao Yi and I are not... not in that kind of relationship!"

"Understood, understood, haha."

Doctor Niu and the others watched Zeng Xiaomei’s face turn scarlet and her anxious expression as she hurriedly explained herself. They exchanged glances and couldn’t help but smile knowingly, chuckling and saying they understood, but their expressions clearly showed they weren’t taking her words seriously, their looks growing even more ambiguous.

Even Dean Chen, who had been slightly skeptical before, now had no doubts and was convinced of her relationship with Xiao Yi. Everyone thought that her facial expression and tone were merely due to a girl’s modesty, her reluctance to admit it in front of them.

"Young lady, saving someone is more urgent, please call Doctor Xiao over quickly."

Zeng Xiaomei, seeing their expressions, felt increasingly anxious. These people had actually linked her and Xiao Yi together—it was utterly absurd! How could she possibly have any sort of relationship with Xiao Yi!

She opened her mouth, subconsciously wanting to continue arguing, to make things clear to them, but before she could speak, Doctor Niu, with a smile already on his face, spoke first.

Yes, saving people is urgent!

Doctor Niu’s words suddenly calmed Zeng Xiaomei’s mind, her facial expression returning to normal in an instant, and the words she intended to say were completely forgotten.

"Doctor, you just mentioned Doctor Xiao, is it really Xiao Yi? Is Xiao Yi really a doctor?"

Zeng Xiaomei once again looked doubtfully at Doctor Niu.

That Xiao Yi was a doctor was simply too hard to believe. Even if she heard that aliens had invaded the world, she wouldn’t be as shocked. In Xiao Yi, she really couldn’t see anything that resembled a doctor, and he wasn’t even enrolled at Medical College but at the School of Mathematics—a field completely unrelated to medical science.

"Of course, it’s true. Could there be another Doctor Xiao in this world?"

Seeing the puzzled look on Zeng Xiaomei’s face, Doctor Niu was slightly taken aback. Did Zeng Xiaomei really not know that Xiao Yi was a doctor?

"Are you sure, it’s the Xiao Yi who was talking to me on the first floor just now?"

Zeng Xiaomei was still not convinced.

"Of course, young lady, although I, Niu, am not young, I am not yet senile!"

Doctor Niu asserted, his tone becoming slightly irritated.

The other two doctors also began to show a look of surprise. Why did it seem like Zeng Xiaomei really couldn’t believe that Xiao Yi was a doctor? She kept asking insistently?

"How... how can that be, how could he be a doctor?"

Now certain that she had not misheard and that these doctors really meant Xiao Yi, Zeng Xiaomei was thoroughly stupefied, her eyes filled with disbelief as she murmured to herself.

"Young lady, you didn’t know Xiao Yi was a doctor?"

Doctor Niu carefully asked, watching the expression on Zeng Xiaomei’s face.

"I didn’t know."

Zeng Xiaomei shook her head blankly.

So, she didn’t know—that explained why she didn’t ask him for help earlier, why she didn’t call him to come up from downstairs to treat the patient. Hearing Zeng Xiaomei’s words, Doctor Niu and the other two doctors exchanged glances, finally understanding why she hadn’t summoned Xiao Yi to come save the day. At the same time, they couldn’t help but start to respect Xiao Yi; usually, young men, especially around girls they liked, would put on a show, eager to demonstrate how capable they were, and even sometimes fabricate abilities just to attract the girl...

But Xiao Yi’s medical skills were genuinely miraculous, so superb that even they, as experts, showed him deference; yet he never boasted, even keeping it hidden so well in front of the girl he liked. What rare humility and magnanimity!

This was truly a grandmaster’s demeanor, a real ’valley so empty yet full’!

He truly exemplified the old saying ’Those who know do not speak, those who speak do not know!’

"Doctor Xiao is truly humble, a real sage, it’s humbling indeed!"

Doctor Niu could no longer contain his admiration as he looked on with utmost reverence, "Young lady, let me tell you, Doctor Xiao is not only a doctor but also a truly divine doctor with superb medical skills. Even saying he’s a modern Hua Tuo wouldn’t be an exaggeration!"

"Yes, though Doctor Xiao is quite young, his medical expertise is indeed unlike anything I’ve encountered in my life!"

"If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I really wouldn’t have thought that on this earth, there could be someone so young, yet so miraculously skilled in medicine! It completely overturned many of my previous notions and made me believe that true geniuses do exist in the world!"

The two doctors beside nodded vigorously, showing deep agreement.

"Is his medical skill really that impressive?"

Xiaomei finally regained her senses and, seeing the worshipful looks on the faces of the three doctors, her eyes once again showed doubt.

"Young lady, do you think we are the kind of people who speak carelessly?"

Seeing that Xiaomei seemed to doubt his words, Doctor Niu’s face instantly showed a touch of displeasure. It didn’t matter if she didn’t believe his other words, but doubting Doctor Xiao’s medical skills was absolutely unacceptable.

"Miss Zeng, I can assure you that Doctor Xiao’s medical expertise is indeed extraordinary. Niu and the others are some of the best specialists in our hospital, and they do not praise lightly."

Dean Chen also added his voice.

"Miss Zeng, I think we should not delay. We better call Doctor Xiao right away to save the person in need. Trust us, with him coming, this person will surely be saved."

Doctor Li’s gaze fell on the patient, and he nodded solemnly.

Indeed, saving a life cannot be delayed. Since they all say Xiao Yi is so impressive, it seems that it might actually be true. I’ll just let him give it a try. After all, the situation is already bad enough, and it’s worth the risk anyhow.

The words of Doctor Li brought Xiaomei’s focus back to the patient and the case. After taking a deep breath and calming herself, she quickly pulled out her phone, ready to dial Xiao Yi’s number.

But as she picked up the phone, her expression froze. She suddenly remembered that she did not have Xiao Yi’s phone number. She had always given Xiao Yi her number, waiting for him to call, and she had never thought about needing to call him or asking for his number.

"Miss Zeng, what’s wrong?"

Noticing Xiaomei’s unusual demeanor, Doctor Niu’s face showed a hint of concern and, thinking she was still upset with Xiao Yi and being too proud to back down, promptly urged anxiously, "Miss Zeng, nothing else matters right now; saving a person is the most urgent."

"That... I don’t have his number, do you have it?"

A slight embarrassment appeared on Xiaomei’s face as she spoke.

"Ah?"

Everyone couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment.

"That..."

Seeing the look on their faces, Xiaomei knew they had misunderstood her relationship with Xiao Yi, which is why they were showing such expressions. She wanted to clarify, but she didn’t know how to explain.

"I have it."

Fortunately, Doctor Niu and the others didn’t dwell on it. They quickly pulled out their phones, found Xiao Yi’s number, and handed it to Xiaomei.

As Xiaomei began dialing the number, their gazes toward her turned slightly peculiar, and the fondness they had previously felt for her quickly dissipated.

It seemed that this young lady might not necessarily be a good match for Doctor Xiao. With such a temper, she had even deleted Xiao Yi’s number upon anger, which was quite extreme. Moreover, not remembering his phone number in a relationship also seemed quite heartless.

They exchanged glances, clearly reading each other’s thoughts.

Even Dean Chen sighed slightly. Indeed, finding a suitable match from a prestigious family was not easy. His previous sliver of envy, thinking that Xiao Yi landing Miss Zeng from the Zeng family was a great fortune, had now completely vanished.

Dealing with such a high-maintenance lady, no matter how wealthy, influential, or promising it might seem on the outside, where was the happiness in that? He decided then that he would absolutely not let his son marry such a pampered heiress.

Xiaomei was unaware of their thoughts. If she had known, she might have thrown her phone out and literally spit blood. She had only dialed the number, her expression slightly anxious as she awaited the response from the other side.

She wasn’t worried that Xiao Yi would refuse to come and help treat the patient, but she was still somewhat apprehensive, unsure if he could really heal the person. After all, the image of Xiao Yi in her mind was still too difficult to connect with a legendary Divine Doctor. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it on Qidian.com.
